About the Webinar

While misleading or deceptive conduct is a well-known cause of action under Australian consumer law, it is not commonly considered or understood within the context of renovation or building works commissioned by residential home owners. This session will:

  • Analyse the definition of ‘trade or commerce’ within context of private residences and discuss using a range of case studies when works commissioned by home-owners may fall within the definition (where do you draw the line)
  • Look at representations made for renovations (what is being delivered), practical limitations with warranties and the options available to homeowners when a defect arises outside of the warranty period
  • Explore the application of the soon-to-be expanded unfair contract term regime to residential home-owners and when may a promise in contract be framed as a warranty to enliven jurisdiction
